The Happy Album was inspired by trends in stationery and scrapbooking that include bullet and travel journals and the huge popularity of planners, as well as trends and research that point to the desire for attractive, small and portable items. The Happy Album includes 13 6.75″x1 0″ predesigned pages inside a beautiful (CM through-and-through) Mint Album Cover with a friendly “don’t worry, be happy” design on the cover. Also included are a Repositionable Tape Runner, Black Dual-Tip Pen and two Happy Album “Kits.” I’m excited will be available 3rd July nice birthday present for me. To order click HERE

So, the Happy Album was created to attract more people to our fun and meaningful mission. Our hope is that when you see the Happy Album, you are excited to share it with your friends or daughters and granddaughters while you continue enjoying your memories in Creative Memories traditional albums.

Good morning, long time no hear. The wonderful thing that I love about scrapbooking is that no matter what you go through it is always there, it never goes away.

I’ve been on a journey as I am sure we all have and earlier this year got a position with Flight Centre. It’s something I had always thought about and at 49 thought it was a bit late for a career change. I am loving it, helping people dream about a holiday how amazing. I get to use my products to do up their packages for them and as I get settled can help with suggestions on how to create an album if they are interested.

The photo above is the team that I trained with, most I could have been their mum how cute.

So how are your scrapbooking projects going? What things have you been doing? How is life? I would love to hear from you, feel free to connect with me on FACEBOOK. just send me a message.

If you are new to Our Memories for Life it can appear a little confusing to get started when you go to the above website. Our Memories for Life is owned by Youngevity and what does that mean? It means when you join and there is a one off yearly fee you can wholesale access not just to scrapbooking products but to all the other products that fall under that umbrella eg hertiage makers, essential oils, Youngevity and much more.

It’s very exciting and offers you the opportunity to save money by purchasing what you want when you want.

There are lots of new things coming in the pipeline, new website, the ability to create online albums and other new products.

Sorry for the short update but will be posting more regularly soon. Have a super duper day Julia

Well that year flew bye so quickly. We started out as a family of 5 living and working together and throughout the year each child left and it was just Brian and I. So happy to get together for Christmas even if it was for only two days.

Sam joined the army in April 2015 that was a proud moment for all of us. Polly decided she wanted to try flatting and moved out in June 2015 and continues to manager Hungry Jacks. Our youngest was concreting and still at home but after we got an offer to manage a caravan park, he moved to Moree with his Uncle to work down there.

I certainly didn’t get to scrapbook much or exercise much or achieve some of the goals I set but I have been true to myself and not given up my faith.

The caravan park turned out not to be what it should have been and after 5 months of 7 days a week we left. I got a job straightway working on Fraser Island and Brian is resting up. View is the jetty on the Island.

So now we are already in 2016. I have chosen to leave behind some of 2015 which hasn’t been serving me like sugar, now that is a challenge. I’m about to go on a 10 day detox with this PRODUCT if you would like to join with me sign up and let me know so we can encourage each other.

I will get back to scrapbooking, now that we have moved to a house where I can get my gear out. So I am with two different companies, both allow you to join yourself for a fee and just purchase what you want when you want. Click on the name and it will take to you the site Our Memories For Life (this is under a sister company called Youngevity which Rhonda Anderson is with after the old Creative Memories Closed).

Creative Memories is back again and you can join thisHERE and order your fav products again, no min orders for either of these. It just $59 to join in Australia and $49 US.

What are your dreams for this year. I still believe we need to have a vision in order to get anywhere even if we don’t know all the little details. I wish you every success in everything you put your hand to. xxx Julia

Cheers to the outgoing year, 2015:
May the good times live on in our memories,
and may we learn lessons from the troubling times
that will make us stronger and better than ever.

Cheers to 2016:
For each and every one of you,
may it be filled with significant steps
toward the fulfillment of your fondest wishes.

May it bring you more joy and success
And less grief and regret.

Cheers to your dreams…
May you never stop believing in them
And taking the actions that will make them a reality.

In this coming new year, let us focus on our goals

and work diligently toward them,
and yet let’s all try to go with the flow a little more
and stress a little less.

And most important, cheers to all of you.
Appreciate yourselves and each other in the New Year
as Marcia and I appreciate all of you now.

Let’s focus on each other’s good points
and choose to overlook minor annoyances.

Let us encourage more and criticize less,
Give more and need less.
And whenever we can, let us create harmony,
